The leasing segment remains highly profitable with margins above 35%, while the rail products segment is recovering as secondary market activity improves. With a strong balance sheet and a 3.4% dividend yield, Trinity is positioned for potential stock price appreciation, with an estimated 28% upside to a $46 target price.
